    For a highway it is slow in comparison to anywhere I remember. It's usually 130 or 110 km/h for highways


    And I don't care about my postcount. In fact, it's my second 1337th post if you count the time prior to my count reset.

However, 95 mph is very fast, especially on a 65mph highway.

    The main problem isn't speeding, a lot of people do so, the problem is speeding too fast and not getting a ticket. Even if it IS a business, it shouldn't go away because you're angry that you weren't home in time. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Better than what it used to be (55mph). Some states are even up to 75 or 85mph.

    Speed limit here (holland) is 120km/h on motorways. I believe it's 150km/h in Italy though.

    Fastest I've ever gone over was about 70 over the 30Mph for a total of 100, wee.

    I was the passenger, and it scared the **** out of me, but I went 100 on a 30, at like 2am, in the country...
  • CyndaneCyndane Join Date: 2003-11-15 Member: 22913Members
    Lets do some conversion of kph and mph.

    60 m/h = 97 km/h

    70m/h = 113 km/h

    80m/h = 129 km/h

    90m/h = 145 km/h

    100m/h = 162 km/h

    Speed limits in the US:

    South Dakota: 75mph

    Iowa: 70mph

    Minnesota: 65mph(Might be 70 now)

    Nebraska: 65mph

    Missouri: 70mph

    Montana: 100mph (faster if you have an orange ribbon on your car)(Orange Ribbon = Special fee paid to go faster)

    I think there's a state has the speed limit "safe and proper". In other words, stay in your lane and you can go as fast as you want, cause no cop is gonna care.

    Florida is on this big "Clickit or Ticket" campaign now.

    same here in Kentucky. AS far as tickets go I've been pulled over doing 90 in a 55. The cop didn't let me go completely but toned it down to 24 over so I wouldn't lose all 6 points off my liscense. But since I know the county clerk or whatever the title is of the guy who handles all the tickets, all I have to do is go to traffic school and I get out with no points lost. Hurray for small towns and knowing everyone.

    No, just Montana, you try to pull that in North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, the cops will laugh at you. Then fine you for however fast you were going over.

    You have a better chance of dying in a car accident than from any disease. The faster you go, the higher the chance the wreck would be fatal, either to you or to the other vehicle you hit. Of course, driving down a residential street, even if you're not speeding, adds the chance of hitting pedestrians, which increases the chance of a fatality. But hey, as long as you aren't a wussy, that's all that matters, right? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
